According to the section 325 of IPC Whoever, except in the case provided for by section 335, voluntarily causes grievous hurt, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to seven years, and shall also be liable to fine. Thus, you can lodge a F.I.R for extortion under section 383 of I.P.C. and under section 325.
